Bad Day

So....
Yeah....
Today wasn't the best.  Went to the doctor about my foot.  Nothing major.  I got a cortisone shot in my foot, it wasn't pleasant.  It is feeling better now. 

Anyways, I joined Women Can Run Monday.  I'm pretty excited about it.  I am really doing good with running and I'm proud of myself.  Maybe once I get this foot taken care of it will all be better.

I made a kick butt recipe tonight.  I had asked Mama Laughlin for a "skinny" sweet recipe for potluck tomorrow via Keek (awesome app, you make a 36 second video and upload it).  She gave me a suggestion to look at her blog (link above) for Cheesecake Sopapillas.  OMG They are AMAZING!!  So simple. 

2 cans of reduced fat Crescent Roles
2 packages of reduced fat Cream Cheese (8 oz)
1 cup of Splenda
1/2 cup cinnamon/splenda mix (I used mostly sugar more than 1/4 cup)
1 stuck unsalted butter.
2 teaspoons vanilla 

Take one can of rolls and put in a 9 by 13 greased pan, spread out.

Mix cream cheese, sugar and vanilla.  Spread the mixture over the rolls.

Put the other can of rolls on top. 

Melt the butter and pour over the top

Sprinkle the cinnamon/sugar mix over the butter.

Bake at 350 for 40 minutes. 

Eat when they are warm and it's like a party in your mouth.  I may have had more than one serving, but I also skipped dinner so whatever.

Really, you need to try it.  And you also need to check out Mama Laughlin's blog.

CMA Fest Weekend

I am a big country music fan.  Plus I'm a big fan of live music.  Also I am a huge fan of Music City.  So it's a no brainer that CMA Fest is one of my favorite things on the planet. I feel in love with CMA Fest last year when I went.  It was amazing. This year I wasn't sure I was getting to go.  I was a little bummed. However, by pure accident I ordered tickets for the Opry to see Carrie Underwood on Friday June 7.  I didn't realize that it was CMA Fest weekend until I tried to book a hotel and there were not hotels in Nashville.  Oops. So I booked a hotel in Brentwood and decided to make the most out of my happy mistake!  So Friday, we rolled into down in a ran storm and found our hotel.  We changed clothes and got ready then headed out to the Opry.  We went to Orpy Mills Mall first, I hit up the Vera Bradley Outlet and got some sweet deals. Then we went to the Opry.  It was a great show, I did miss Little Jimmy Dickens...

Jeans

No matter how stores try to candy coat it, there is a certain stigma around the plus size section of stores.  They can call it curvy or misses or whatever, but we all know what it is.  There is an imaginary line in the middle of the store where no one wants to cross.  At least that's how I feel about it.  I'm sure the girls on the "regular" side could careless, or the workers for that matter, but I always feel self conscious when shopping on the side of the store.  Sure, you get used to it and laugh when you're with your skinny friends and say "I'll be over on the big girl side" and saunter on your way to the plus size section.  While you began to search through the racks on your side, you secretly long to be on the other side of the store, where there is double, sometimes triple the selection of clothes.  You find something, take it back to the dressing room to try it on.  It doesn't look right, it's too tight, it's not what you thought ...

Better

Last year during a book study at school we were reading The Energy Bus by Jon Gordon.  One of our assignments during our study was to pick one word for our year which is also based on a book, My One Word by Mike Ashcraft and Rachel Olsen. Long story short, instead of making a resolution for the New Year.  You pick a word.  If you go here  you can read about that. Basically, here is a simple three step introduction. Step One:  Determine the kind of person you want to be. Step Two:  Identify the characteristics of that person. Step Three:  Pick a word. Last year, I picked the word consistent. I felt that I did a good job being consistent. I started thinking about what word I wanted to use for 2019.  I have been thinking for a few weeks.  I have still been thinking about the person I want to be this year, and for every year for that matter.  I have thought about those characteristics of that person.  And today, on th...
